Spend a check and get it right back

Doctor you ain’t got a pill
For whatever’s making this world ill1
You can’t get forgiveness at the store2
And peace it’s a politician’s war3
You won’t find no resolution in the bottom of a bottle
In the stars or Aristotle4
The only answer to the problem is

People loving people5
That’s the enemy of everything that’s evil6
Ain’t no quick fix at the end of a needle
It’s just people loving people7

Words aren’t what they seem to be
Talk is cheap and lies are free8
We fear what we don’t understand9
And we’ve been scared since time began10
All the colors11 and the cultures
Circle ’round us on a spindle12
It’s a complicated riddle
But the solution is so simple13

It’s people loving people
That’s the enemy of everything that’s evil
Ain’t no quick fix at the end of a needle
It’s just people loving people

You can pawn it off on kings and queens
And those behind the curtain14
Say one can’t make a difference
In a world so full of hurting15
But I believe the remedy
Starts right here with you and me16

People loving people
That’s the enemy of everything that’s evil
Ain’t no quick fix at the end of a needle
It’s just people loving people
It’s just people loving people
It’s just people loving people17

Explained Lyrics

Garth Brooks knows that the world has gone astray. There are many challenges and failures the human race has had to endure. “Doctor you ain’t got a pill” means that there are no easy solutions to making the world better. No expert can easily fix the world’s massive problems.

Forgiveness is necessary for moving on from hardships and conflicts, but forgiveness does not manifest itself automatically.

Politicians and similar self-interested people are always out to take advantage of others, even if it hurts them. They will start wars at the cost of sacrificing peace.

No philosophy or ideas is strong enough to simply heal the world’s abundant tragedies.

Garth Brooks believes that believe need to love one another to make the world a better place.

Evil can only be fought with love, according to Garth Brooks.

Love is the only solution to the world’s ills, and it’s easier said than done.

People use rhetoic to manipulate and exploit others for their own selfish gain. The world is full of liars and deceit.
